Did Carrie Underwood’s “Before He Cheats” Spark Attack on Car?

OK, it wasn't exactly a Louisville Slugger to both headlights.

But police in Milford, Conn., arrested a 36-year-old woman after accusing her of taking a hammer to a car owned by her "former companion." Oh, and police said she slashed two of the car's four tires, TV station NBC Connecticut in Hartford, Conn., reported.

That same TV station referred [1]to Carrie Underwood's 2006 No. 1 single "Before He Cheats" in reporting the story, but there's no evidence that the suspect, Nakia Hurdle, was directly motivated by that song.

The ex's car, by the way, was parked in a hotel parking lot when Hurdle allegedly vandalized it.
